Look Who’s Talking: A Guide to Teaching Functional Communication

Communication is an important tool for getting your needs met and engaging socially with others. Often times individuals who have difficulty communicating will engage in various problem behaviors as a result of being unable to effectively express their wants and needs. The goal of teaching functional communication is to both increase the use of communication across settings, but also find an alternative to problem behaviors that may occur as a result of deficits in communication. This presentation will cover the basics of teaching and expanding communication skills as well as options for appropriate alternative forms of communication.
